Abstract

This paper examines output feedback control of wireless networked control systems where there are separate links between the sensor-to-controller and controller-to-actuator. The proposed triggering events only rely on local information so that the transmissions from the sensor and controller subsystems are not necessarily synchronized. This represents an advance over recent work in event-triggered output feedback control where transmission from the controller subsystem was tightly coupled to the receipt of event-triggered sensor data. The paper presents an upper bound on the optimal cost attained by the closed-loop system. Simulation results demonstrate that transmissions between sensors and controller subsystems are not tightly synchronized. These results are also consistent with derived upper bounds on overall system cost.
